Security Chain Company Super Z6, SZ143, Cable Chain for Passenger Cars, Pickups & SUVs – Set of 2
- Designed for cars, pickups, and SUVs with very limited operating clearance around the drive tires
- Fast easy installation with no need to move the vehicle
- Designed-in rubber tightener means there is no need to stop and retighten after installation
- Better all-around traction performance than conventional tire chains or cables
- Better compatibility with anti-lock brakes, traction control, all-wheel drive, and other electronically monitored control systems
Product Description
Super Z6 was designed by SCC for cars, trucks, and SUV’s with restricted clearance around the drive tires. Based on SCC’s experience with other products in the “Z” family, Super Z6 has one very special quality: it will operate in less than half of the space required by most cable chains and tire chains. Super Z6 requires only 6mm (1/4″) of sidewall clearance to operate. The diagonal pattern provides constant traction, aggressive starting, stopping, cornering and ens… More >>
Super Hatchback Concept (SHC) Eco Concept Car
Posted by in Uncategorized on February 13, 2010
Super Hatchback Concept (SHC), is the work of designer Jamie Martin who wants to illustrate a possible future eco-friendly model. The SHC concept is a 3-door hatchback that intended as a near-future rival for such cars as the Honda Civic and Ford Focus, the SHC offers a combination of sports-car performance and handling, teamed with the economic considerations and efficiency of a town car.
Striving to look both cutting-edge and most importantly fast, the swooping lines introduce an agile stance, as well as carefully directing airflow under, into and around the car. With a choice between three next generation powertrains (including an electric/hybrid option), the SHC offers efficiency, sports-car performance and environmentally friendly credentials. A balanced formula of raw power, racing spirit, practicality and eco engine choices make this the supercar-inspired drive that you can also make your daily driver.

Jamie also projected some specifications for an air-hybrid version of his SHC concept. The SHC concept would output 272 bhp and 290 lb.-ft. of torque and will have a top speed of 167 mph. The car could accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in 5.6 seconds with a 52 mpg combined fuel consumption. He even estimated a SHC concept price which could start at around the 27,000 GBP mark.
The SHC chassis is made of high tensile steel and aluminium, for reduced weight and better weight distribution. The concept car has aluminium suspension components for improved handling and uses a front-wheel drive system with mechanical limited slip differential and next generation Ford RevoKnuckle axle system.
The SHC features two powertrain alternatives. The first one is the AirHybrid and Gasoline Compression Ignition (GCI). It uses a twin-turbocharged engine with direct injection, 6-speed short-shift manual gearbox (optional 7-speed Ford PowerShift transmission with paddle-shift).

The second option is the Delta Drive Hybrid (DDH) system. It has a smaller petrol engine and two electric motors (located inside the front wheels), and allows the car to run 70 miles, with zero CO2 emissions, via charged batteries (Nano-Titanate batteries placed in the front engine bay and under the floor), before the petrol engine is needed to recharge.
The DDH system has three performance modes: Economy (low bhp), Normal (medium bhp) and Performance (high bhp) – which uses both the petrol engine and electric generator. With a slim chance of going into production in 2014, this concept vehicle is likely to compete against the Honda Civic Type-R, the Ford Focus RS and others alike.
